Thanks Florin! I am having some problems with the input jack. At first it did not work at all. I removed the battery, but it was fully charged. I replaced it and it worked, but had some Crackling. I opened the cavity where the controld are and when I touched the Purple Wire, it came loose! I soldered it back into place, but it still has some Crackling. Sound like a good idea to replace it? But the bass Plays nicely! Just crackles if I move. Which I LOVE to do while I'm playing!

Here are some shots I took this morning!

Thanks Shmone. I'm having it Fixed, and then Jamming with it Tomorrow. I didn't realize that the body was so "Un-Flat!" It has a nice contour in the back of the body. More Curves. Kinda Sexxxy!

When I buy an used Warwick, the forst thing I do - I replace the input jack to be sure :-)
 
The new ones are better, I was problem free for a long time now.
 
i've found it to be a problem on every bass i've owned with a barrel jack to be honest, it's not just warwicks (though some people do try to make it seem that way).
 
Hi to everyone, new to the forum and new to Warwick basses. I just took delivery of a new 2005 Streamer Jazzman 4, beautiful !!
My question concerns the micro switch (PU mode). I know what this switch does after reading the manual but can anyone explain to me what effect each setting has on the sound. This is confusing me. Thanks
 
Hi Roger,

Swith in the middle -= Single Coil mode. This mode is similar to any Jazz style pickup. Clean straight sound.

Switch Up and Switch down - Humbucker mode
Switch up has more mids, less lows.
Switch down is darker but growlier - the "standard" Music Man sound.

I hope it helps.

Cheers,

Flo
 
Thanks florin thats alot clearer, off to try it all out now !!! Cant get enough of this bass.
 
Advise for Newbie Please

Sorry to keeping asking questions but this is the first warwick Ive owned, a Streamer LX Jazzman.
I didnt receive any wax in my user pack, when i quiried this with The UK American Guitar Centre ( who have been extremely helpful purchasing this bass and throughly recommended) they told me that my bass has a protective coating and doesnt need waxing therefore no wax! Is this correct doest seem to be any coating visble. Thanks

While Im at it what does the various initials mean, ie. LX, BO, NT etc?
 
If its a colored finish or any other finish that isn't natural oil finish then you shouldn't wax it, do a search there are lots of threads about this.
also, I have no idea what LX means:P
 
As I said it doesnt seem to have any protective finish, Its swamp ash 2005 model with a thin veneer of a darker wood with a flame maple top. But how do i tell if its got this coating has anyone ever heard of it before. I have searched and can find no mention of a clear protective coating.

The Streamer Jazzman comes also in natural oil finish...posting some pics of yours might definitely help to make sure if this is the case.
